MEDITERRANEAN LENTIL SALAD
Here's a summery lentil salad topped with tomatoes, roasted peppers and feta, garnished with hard-cooked eggs, anchovy fillets and good canned tuna. Studded with olives and sprinkled with oregano, it's a sort-of niçoise salad by way of Greece, an easy main course suitable for a picnic or a no-fuss make-ahead supper.

Steps:
- Cook the lentils: Rinse and put in a medium saucepan. Cover with 4 cups water and add bay leaf, thyme sprig and a large pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat and simmer gently with lid ajar for 20 to 25 minutes, until lentils are tender. Set pot aside and let cool to room temperature.
- Put the potatoes in another saucepan, cover with water and add a heaping teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to brisk simmer. Cook about 15 minutes, until cooked through when probed with a paring knife. Drain and set aside. (If desired, use a paring knife to remove skins from potatoes while still warm.) Cut in halves or quarters.
- While lentils cook, make the vinaigrette: In a small bowl, stir together vinegar and garlic. Season with a good pinch of salt and pepper. Whisk in the oil. Taste and adjust. Stir in oregano.
- Put the cherry tomatoes in a bowl. Drain onion slices, and add to the tomatoes along with roasted pepper strips. Season with salt, then add half the vinaigrette (well whisked). Toss to coat.
- To assemble salad, drain lentils and transfer to a large low, wide bowl or platter and let cool for 10 minutes. Add remaining vinaigrette, sprinkle with a little salt and toss gently. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- Top lentils with tomato-onion-pepper mixture. Arrange anchovy fillets, tuna (if using) and eggs on top. Sprinkle with mint and parsley. Arrange halved or quartered potatoes around the perimeter. Garnish with basil leaves, olives and feta. Sprinkle a pinch of oregano over the salad.

Let simmer until the lentils are fully tender (anywhere from 25 to 45 minutes depending on the kind of lentils used). Be sure to check and add water if lentils seem too dry during the cooking process (they should absorb a lot of the water. Drain and set aside to cool.

- Rinse the lentils, picking out any stones or shriveled pieces. Add the lentils to a saucepan along with the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, for about 25 minutes or until tender but still holding their shape. Add more liquid if needed. After cooking, drain any excess liquid. If you have time to spare, transfer them to the fridge to cool completely.
- Add all of the ingredients to a jar, close the lid, and shake well to combine. Alternately, whisk together well in a bowl until emulsified. Add more salt to taste (I use 1/2 tsp total).
- Add all of the ingredients except for the dressing to a bowl. Gently fold together to combine. Drizzle with about 1/2 the dressing, gently stir to combine, and taste for seasoning and dressing. Add more dressing to taste as desired. Best served cold if you have time to wait, but also delicious slightly warm or at room temperature.
